ignores the address selection manner defined in RFC 3484, and thus,
it gives us not little impact.
If they space them closely and run them in parallel, I guess I don't
see the impact. Imagine you have five addresses and your peer has five
addresses, so there are 25 pairs. Imagine you are spacing the SYNs 10
ms apart. Imagine that the only pair that works is the last one you
try. worst case, you find out 2.5 seconds plus one RTT which will
work. If you cache the result, that only happens once, and if you
don't, how does that compare to the current model in which you pick
one address pair by some algorithm and wait for a TCP timeout before
trying another?
